PORTER RESIDENCE

The Porters live 1200 miles south of White River City in a small community called Cicada Cove.

 

Cicada Cove had at one time been a secret NASA research facility.  As the Space Race came to an end, budget cuts resulted in the shutting down of the Cicada Cove center.

 

Most of the members of the town left to find work elsewhere, but the few who remained were able to turn Cicada Cove into a tourist trap and retirement community for the wealthy and famous.

 

While most citizens and tourists make the most of the sunny weather, beautiful beaches, subtropical lagoons, and various entertainment venues, there are some who believe there are still experiments being held in the old building that once contained some of the government's most guarded secrets.
